The Package (animated short): Difference between revisions

From Halopedia, the Halo wiki

(The presence to lights on armor in H4: FUD is a stylistic choice. It takes place in 2526, five years before the first shields. The armor clearly possesses no shields as shown when John protects Sully. The needle shard impacts on his armor, not a shield.)

The team make their way past an array of plasma weaponry and attach a [[scanning device]] to a [[CCS-class battlecruiser]] to search for the "package's" frequency. Solomon detects the package on one of the ships. As soon as he leaves the vessel's hangar, he discovers an [[antimatter charge]], which destroys the ship and kills him. Soon, the Spartans detect the same beacon frequency coming from all the ships around them. This confirms that the Covenant knows what the commandos are after. John deduces that the target is actually in the assault carrier [[flagship]]. Arthur is killed while trying to cover Kelly from pursuing [[Seraph]]s. The remaining Spartans board the Assault Carrier and take cover inside a [[bubble shield]].

After making their way through thick [[Jiralhanae|Brute]] and [[Unggoy|Grunt]] defenses, the Spartans are ambushed by a team of [[elites]]. Fred parries a swipe from an [[Type-1 Energy Weapon/Sword|energy sword]] with his [[M6 Grindell/Galilean Nonlinear Rifle|Spartan Laser]], and kills his attacker with a combat knife, distracting John's own attacker and holding the Elites off long enough for John and Kelly to proceed. [[Luro 'Taralumee|The Fleet Master]] gives the order to [[Modular Dispersal Technology|detach parts of the hull]], hoping to leave the Spartans stranded in space - Kelly manages to propel John back into the ship, but is left in the vacuum. John manages to recover the "package" - revealed to be Doctor Catherine Elizabeth Halsey, founder of the SPARTAN-II program, in cryo-hibernation.
After making their way through thick [[Jiralhanae]] and [[Unggoy]] defenses, the Spartans are ambushed by a team of [[Sangheili]].

John releases the doctor and tries to effect an escape. However, their path is blocked by the Elite Major [[Thel 'Lodamee]], who challenges John to a sword duel, giving the Spartan his other Energy Sword. The duel is fierce but short, and John is disarmed and defeated. At this moment, by a twist of fate, the Shipmaster decides to detach the entire lower hull section and jump to [[Slipspace]] after clearing the magnetic interference, leaving the Spartans and many Covenant survivors stranded. Thel is sealed off from John and Halsey just when he's about to kill them. As he is [[Gravity lift|lifted]] away from the soon-to-be-scuttled hull, he curses the Shipmaster with the words, "I had him. Commander, you fool! A thousand hells await you!"

Now free of immediate Covenant danger, the two board a Covenant escape pod and are promptly pursued by Seraph fighters. They are saved by Fred and Kelly, who have captured another Seraph. The survivors are recovered by the stealth ship, which soon leaves the system. Once they are aboard, John swears that he will never let another comrade die again.<ref>'''Halo Legends:''' ''The Package''</ref>
